ITS VERY INTISTING TO ME I LIVE IN PURVIS MS IN LAMAR COUNTY.THAT TEST SIGHT IS IN DIXIE MS LAMAR COUNTY.MY SON GOES THER WITH A FRIEND TO HIS GRAND PARENTS HOUSE AND HE SWEARS THAT HES SEEN 2 HEADED LIZARDS THERE AND IN NOT BS.THERE GONN KILL US ALL,WE SHOULD PROB MOVE HUH,BY THE WAY THE CANCER RATE HERE IS EXTREMELY HIGH,I KNOW 2 PEOPLE THAT HAVE LUNG CANCER THAT NEVER SMOKED

I don't know that I could ever trust the company responsible for this as a means of corrective action? Just sayin'?And why is it that Americans always need to blow shit up? I will never understand it. "Oh, lets see what will happen if we blow it up?"

" Nuclear scientists investigated several potential test sites in Mississippi, but finally selected a site just north of Baxterville in Lamar County, about 28 miles southwest of Hattiesburg. Geologically, the area was called the Tatum Salt Dome, a vast supply of dense salt located about 1,000 feet below ground level. Salt domes deep beneath the surface of south central Mississippi are the dried remains of a sea that covered much of the state in the Mesozoic Era. The plan was to detonate one nuclear bomb about 2,700 feet down, in solid salt. This would be the 1964 blast, code-named Project Salmon. It was believed Project Salmon would blast a huge cavity in the salt. Then the second blast, Project Sterling, would involve detonating a smaller nuclear bomb inside the cavity left in the salt by Project Salmon. Scientists believed that because the bomb would be detonated in a cavity rather than in solid rock, the shock waves would be muffled and the test might not be detectable by seismographs and other measuring devices. "

The two nuclear tests were done in Purvis, Ms. Not far from Hattisburg, Ms. which is over 165 miles to the sinkhole. There was only 1 in 1964, the Project Sterling blast, on December 3, 1966 was much smaller.

this is not too far from the sink hole!and lets not forget Mr Simmons words!

and we need do re-look at methane-hydrates!this is held in great amount under the GOM and this was the main reason for the explosion. this stuff is very very bad!and held under huge pressure.

WHAT do you get when you combine water and swamp gas under low temperatures and high pressures? You get a frozen latticelike substance called methane hydrate, huge amounts of which underlie our oceans and polar permafrost. This crystalline combination of a natural gas and water (known technically as a clathrate) looks remarkably like ice but burns if it meets a lit match.snip [link to www.llnl.gov (secure)]

Them lizards are reptilian surveillance units...they see you coming and going!

a few things come to the fore when looking at this 'isolated issue:' it is not isolated. amazing number of sinkholes and train derailments so far this month, all indicating because of their location that the craton is on the move. i know for sure that last year everyone freaked over the little EQ's that started up around the new madrid...now no one really mentions it but the fact is, the midwest/east coast EQ's have picked up dramatically since then. whether it's fracking or new madrid, or both, is pretty irrelevant. but all signs point to movement and magma activity.

the vid dutchsinse put up yesterday talks about the venting he has seen, and i know people are also watching the venting carefully.

here in oregon, offshore, we recently had a new lava field emerge (and currently a wildfire is burning in the lava fields, on shore), and this around the same time as the new zealand pumice event:

So, does every one think the sinkhole stopped growing or do you think they simply stopped saying how big it is and how close it is to that butane cavern?

"I believe there's a hero in all of us, that keeps us honest, gives us strength, makes us noble, and finally allows us to die with pride, even though sometimes we have to be steady, and give up the thing we want the most. Even our dreams."

we are waiting for updates....hopefully more info on Mon.

it is very well this will be handled just like BP...seems to be already!

I was in the middle of a family situation during the BP thing so I never did get a complete grasp of the situation.

I assume every body lied, covered up info and tried to blame everyone but themselves like usually happens. My guess is that witness' and whistle blowers disappeared or had "accidents" as well.

"I believe there's a hero in all of us, that keeps us honest, gives us strength, makes us noble, and finally allows us to die with pride, even though sometimes we have to be steady, and give up the thing we want the most. Even our dreams."

One the other thread there was a link to a news report. One the side was another report and it was a woman that was interviewed. The woman was talking about her family and how two had died of cancer and I swear she said that her and all of her siblings were barren. It struck me as odd that a whole family would be unable to reproduce. Now reading that they maybe living near a nuclear testing zone, I guess that would make sense.
